The three actors who played Spider-Man in the early days of the franchise talked about their experience returning to the roles they played at the CCXP this weekend. The initial pitch sold them all, but what really appealed to them was that No Way Home would be different in some aspects. There is a spin on it, and that appealed to me, but it is a return to something I did before. He said that producer Amy Pascal explained to him that he wouldn't have to be blue if he was more hip.
The villains in No Way Home have undergone similar redesigns, as well as the Goblin costume, which has been upgraded. Doc Ock's tentacles are not on-set props like they were in Spider-Man 2, but instead are done digitally, and Foxx said his new look was not trying too hard. He said he relates it to R&B. You used to have fringes or shoulder pads, but now you can sing. They just scanned him, created the costume from the scans, and adjusted accordingly, which was a comfort for Dafoe.
The actors are excited to play the villains again, they all say they have their own arcs throughout the film. In a lesser environment, we would be functionaries who exist to get the plot going. We have real storylines and they are real people. With that sinister smile, he teased that Green Goblin would make a case this time, not just about some abstract muscle twirling power grab.
The movie Spider-Man: No Way Home will be released on December 17.
